There are a lot of things that inspire me and one of them is photography. Pictures capture 1000 words? Yup! I recently had the joy of picking up a new toy that I absolutely l.o.v.e. My canon dslr might just be considered by first child (sorry misto). Not only do I love capturing the world around me but it helps me explore. I am completely a novice when it comes to my overall knowledge but who cares?!? I am learning and hopeful to be more efficient in my photos here soon. The photo above is taken right outside my new apartment. I'm excited to learn more. Stay tuned...

I recently deleted my Facebook account...only to be quickly addicted to another internet site.

PINTEREST.

Oh how I love thee. What a great place to be inspired. Fashion, home decor, food, etc...are all easily categorized for my drooling pleasure.

Goodbye Facebook, hello Pinterest! I think that if I am to spend time online (as I'm doing right now) that I should be as creatively inspired as possible. Thank you Pinterest for capturing my interest (or should I say pinterest?!?).

Follow all my boards if you'd like. It's so fun...and I hope you get inspired as well!

One example of how my life has been changed for the better is this. Oh candle mixing, why didn't I think of this myself?!

Today I completely cleaned my apartment...like a bleach and water, scrub the baseboards kind of clean. Cleaning for the new year? Check. I also got fun little toy as well and this weekend I got to use my new Rebel XTI. I love it so much!!

A snapshot of my life: sparkle sunglasses, coffee, more sparkle, iPhone, and Home Depot

I'm excited to learn about how to use all of the bells and whistles and become more familiar with how to test lighting! It's been fun so far and can't wait to go on more photo safaris.
